FATHER DANIEL O'SULLIVAN

1846-1928

The Founding Pastor of Our Lady of Mount Carmel was born in Listowel, Co Kerry, Ireland on March 19,1846, the fourth child of Eugene (Owen) O'Sullivan and Margaret Nolan. He was one of nine
children, two girls and seven boys.

He received his first education at Mr Leahy's School in Listowel and studied theology at All Hallows Major Seminary in Dublin. Fr O'Sullivan was ordained on June 24, 1871, in All Hallows Chapel
by Bishop William Whelan, O.C.D., retired Vicar Apostolic of Bombay, India. Being ordained for the Diocese of Grass Valley, he left for California in August of 1871.

1871-1872 Pastor of St Joseph, Crescent City.

Founding Pastor of Immaculate Conception, Smartsville, California.

Assistant at St Mary's in the Mountains, Virginia City, Navada.

Second Pastor of St Mary's in the Mountains and Vicar General for Northern Nevada after the first pastor of St. Mary's, Father Patrick Manogue, was named Bishop of Grass Valley.

Pastor of St. Anthony, Mendocino, California.

The month of May, 1886, was to have a great influence in his life. On May 7 he became a United States citizen in ceremonies in Ukiah Superior Court, Mendocino County. On May 28 the Diocese of
Grass Valley was transferred to Sacramento, and all the parishes along the coast as far north as Fort Bragg became part of the Archdiocese of San Francisco. Father O'Sullivan thus found himself a
priestof this archdiocese.

Founding Pastor of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish in Redwood City.

Father O'Sullivan was appointed Pastor of the Mission San Jose on June 15, 1896. However, he never served as pastor and there is a gap in our knowledge of his life until the beginning of 1898.

1898-1928 Pastor of All Hallows Parish in San Francisco.

Father Daniel O'Sullivan died on February 3, 1928 and was buried in Holy Cross Cemetery, Colma, where a large monument stands in his memory.

Uncle Tom was a carpenter and a great fiddler. He died after he had a stroke in the early 70's in Ireland. Uncle Jack took care of the small farm in Clounamon. It was 35 acres and had about 12
milking cows. They grew all their own vegetables. Aunt Ellie assisted him on the farm. Tom, Jack and Ellie were never married.

Their house was a long thatched house made up of a large kitchen and 4 bedrooms, a peat fire to heat the house and no indoor plumbing. There was an outhouse behind the house. The house was
well-kept in my grandfathers time. In the late 60's, they ran into financial problems after they purchased feed and equipment for the cows on credit from the Sullivans of Ballylongford. The
Sullivans eventually took the farm and gave them 5,000 pounds. Years later, Tom Sheehy bought the farm from the Sullivans for 20,000 pounds. Tom Sheehy is one of the biggest farmers in North
Kerry and is married to Teresa Scanlon. Teresa Scanlon is a first cousin, once removed, of my fathers. (Patrick O'Connor)

When my parents married, my dad moved into the Gilhooly house, in Asdee, with his mother-in-law. This house is stucco built. This is the house where I was born and my brother, Albert, currently
lives there with his family. It is well over 100 years old - but he has made many changes. He currently has a bathroom and central heat. It is on 3 acres and has about 100 feet of frontage. Albie
is a supervisor at Kerry Co-Op in Listowel and is not interested in farming. To the north of the house, my father bought about 40 acres of land which he farmed and raised 4 of us on that farm.
Now it is used by my brother, Morrie, for grazing drystock (cows that are not milking).

Morrie married Eileen Sweeny, on only child and he moved into her parents farm in Ballyconry - 6 miles northwest of Asdee. They live there with there 4 children and milk approximately 30 cows. My
other brother, J.P. lives with his family in the Bronx, New York.

Biographies

Br. Michael Canice Collins

Michael Collins was born at Glin Road, Moyvane, County Kerry on 13 May 1914, the third eldest of a family of eight. When he was eight years old, and his youngest brother only one, his mother
died, leaving his father to rear the children on his own. Two of the children, Michael and Tim, entered the Presentation Brothers; James, a Redemptorist, became a bishop in Brazil; Pat, a
Salesian Father, was Principal of Warrenstown Agricultural College; Maudie became Sister Mary Theophane, a member of the Sisters of the Incarnate Word in the USA.

Michael entered the Presentation Brothers at Mount St. Joseph, Cork on 20 February 1932 and made his final profession of Vows in 1937. He graduated from the National University of Ireland (Cork)
with an honours B.Sc.. in 1940, and obtained the Higher Diploma in Education in 1941. He taught at the Presentation Colleges in Cork and Cobh and spent the last years of World War II teaching in
Reading, England.

Following a request from Dr. Finbar Ryan OP, Archbishop of Port of Spain, the Presentation Brothers opened a new College in St. George's, Grenada, and took over the existing St. Mary's College in
Castries, St. Lucia. Brother Canice was one of the group of three who went to St. Lucia, his companions being Br. Macartan Sheehy and Br. Lawrence Reynolds.

Br. Canice combined the duties of Superior of the community and Principal of the College. On the night of 19 June 1948 fire raged in the town of Castries, threatening to destroy it completely.
Br. Canice persuaded the firefighting authorities to destroy all the old wooden buildings along one street which lay in the path of the flames, thus creating a firebreak. His initiative and
leadership saved much of the town from destruction. An editorial in the local newspaper commended the Brothers for "striving to promote a spirit of initiative and cooperative action". Br.
Canice's efforts both in education and in controlling the "Great Fire of 1948" were acknowledged in the King's New Year's Honours List of 1949 when he was awarded the MBE.

The number of students at St. Mary's had increased steadily and there was a growing demand for more places. The building however was old, small and in bad repair. Br. Canice negotiated the
purchase of a large, vacant military barracks on a splendid site on the Vigie peninsula about two miles from the town. It was completely refurbished and the College was transferred there in 1952.
It was now possible to accommodate over 300 pupils (the original student population was 80) as well as providing hostel and sports facilities. Br. Canice was an able sportsman and it was largely
due to his enthusiasm and energy that the Inter-Island Tournament which schools in Grenada, St. Vincent, Dominica and St. Lucia hosted in turn was revived, having fallen into abeyance during
World war II.

The Brothers also purchased a bungalow at Vigie which had been the Commanding Officers' quarters and this became the Brothers residence when their house in Castries was destroyed in a second fire
in the town in 1951.

Br. Canice was appointed by the Governor of St. Lucia to the Education Board for the island and in 1955 he represented both the Archbishop of Port of Spain and the Government of St. Lucia at a
conference in Kingston, Jamaica, on the setting up of the University of the West Indies. He was also vicar to the Provincial Superior, Br. Dunstan Curtin, at this time.

Br. Canice was a great community man, gentle, humble and self-effacing. He had a wonderful ability to inspire those who worked with him to share his enthusiasm and zeal. Calm and patient, he had
a great sense of humour. He was a keen photographer and left a collection of transparencies recording scenes and events in St. Lucia. With his friend Fr.Jesse FMI he established a museum at St.
Mary's to display numerous Arawak and Carib artifacts collected at various sites on the islands.

Br. Canice left St. Lucia for San Fernando, Trinidad, in 1956 and was appointed Superior there at the end of the year. For years he had suffered headaches from time to time, a problem he
sometimes attributed to an old scalp injury he incurred in his youth when he dived into water that was shallower than he anticipated. Early in 1957 the pains became very severe and frequent. In
March he left for treatment at a hospital in Beaumont, Texas, which was administered by the Sisters of the Incarnate Word, the congregation of which his sister was a member. An aneurism in the
brain was diagnosed and though the surgery performed appeared at first to be successful Br. Canice died on 20 March 1957. He is buried in the cemetery attached to the convent of the Sisters of
the Incarnate Word in Beaumont.

News of Br. Canice's death came as a great shock to the people of St. Lucia and many tributes were paid to him. The words of Br. Dunstan Curtin, who had been the first Provincial Superior of the
Congregation in the West Indies and was a close friend of Br. Canice best summed up the loss felt by those who knew him:

"Brother Canice died young. Had he lived for a century he would have died young - far too young indeed , for the many that loved him."

I enjoyed your online newsletter and found it very informative. I have
been researching my family history for a number of years. My
grandfather, Patrick Windle was born in Glenagragra, County Limerick in
1884. According to information that I have his father, Michael Windle
and mother Anna Long were born in Kerry, as was his grandfather, Henry
Windle and Bridget Culhane. I have not had much success with the Kerry
Heritage Center in getting information on the Windle's in Kerry. The
Windle name is not that common in Ireland, for the most part it was only
in Limerick and Kerry. Do you know of anyone in Kerry who does family
research who might be able to help me?

I have information on all of my grandfather's siblings and I believe
most of his father's siblings. It appears that at least four of my
grandfather Patricks, aunts and uncles (sisters and brothers of Michael)
came to the US and died here. I do not know if there were any other
brothers and sisters of Michael that is what I am trying to find out.
The last sister of Michael was born in Limerick about 1855 according to
parish record information that I got from the Limerick Heritage Center.

Thank You
Marilyn Fannon

Jeremiah---I believe that the Margaret Kennelly born in 1836 you mentioned in your e-mail was my greatgrandmother---She named one of her sons Jeremiah ---my grandfather and he named his oldest
son Jeremiah ---my father. It sounds as if the Jeremaih name may have been common in Kennelly and then Langan families. I wish I had known about you as I was in Askeaton and the area just two
weeks ago ---I visited churches and burial grounds in Foynes,Askeaton, Shanagolden, and Rathkeal. Talked to langans and called Kennellys ---I reached Langans but no Kennellys were answering
phones. I was in Ireland the last two and a half weeks of October and early November. So sorry I did not find you. hope you will continue to communicate with me. Regards Joseph Langan

Hi Jer,
Do you have the address for the Kennellys?
What kind of bells were found and what are they used
for? Thats really interesting..Id really like to have
more info on it if you could provide it. I would love
to put it in our "tales" on our family web page,
adding a "human" side, rather than all statistics..
And I still laugh about the Kennelly who moved so much
that he never took his dresser out of his horse cart!
sounds like me!!!
Do you know who he was or more abou him?
If you would like to add to our pages we will start on
the Kennellys we would love it.
Take care Jeremiah...
Regards,
Cris M

I have a made a note of everything you have sent us on my computer and have the eviction details thank you.Can you receive and read a "WORD" document? I can then show you what I noted.

Appreciate your comments on the burials.Thanks.

Cheers

Jer,

Wow, more good information! I don't believe I have seen this. I have, however, found a marriage in Moyvane of a Tadgh Flaherty to Joanna Doherty, dau of Mathias Doherty of Ahalahana, on 2 Mar
1867. I show 8 children of this marriage baptised in Moyvane between 22 Dec 1867 and

21 Sep 1878. Any chance it could be the same couple?

When you find information such as this, please include the source of the information in as much detail as possible (i.e. parish register; land record; civil record of birth, marriage, death;
manuscript; etc) and a page number or description of the document.

Did the source of this information cover a range of years that can help me narrow down when in the 1800s?

Thanks again for keeping your eyes open for me. I really appreciate it - especially if it relates to Kerry or West Limerick.

Richard

Hello again, haven't heard from you for a time. How are things ? Could you send me details of your latest find - please.

Did I tell you the marriage certificate of Thomas Mulvihill and Johanna Scanlon was found - at Alderney, Guernsey Islands !! If you are interested I will send the info. to you. Someone else in
the Mulvihill family may benefit from it. Still seeking Patrick Mulvihill. He was ' sponsored ' although that isn't the word they used then. Thomas was the depositor Johanna didn't take up her
option to do the same for a member of the family.

any news will help.

thanks and kind regards anne M.

Still hoping that I can receive some information with regard to MULVIHILL. Micheal and Ellen of Newtown Sandes town County Kerry Civil Parish of Murher Poor Law Union ( what does that mean ? )
Listowel. One of their children - Thomas married Johanna Scanlon in Guernsey Channel Isles and came to Australia as assissted passengers on the ' Mary Ann ' settling in Tumut New South Wales
Australia. I have some details on them but would like more family history. Kind regards Anne M

I am doing research on my Kenneally line in my family

My great grandmother:

Mary Agnes Kenneally

born 10 August 1864 in London

died 16 February 1935 in NY

She first married George Pflug and then August Schumacher

Her parents are:

Michael Kenneally born abt. 1830 in Ireland

Sarah McNamara born abt. 1834 in Ireland

They married abt. 1856 in Ireland

Sometime between 1865 and 1873 they left Ireland went to Canada (I believe) and ended up in New York City.

I believe that Mary was one of 9 children and one of her siblings was named John born abt. 1865 also in London

Michael had a brother named Patrick who also came to New York City and 3 brothers, William, Charles, and Joseph who went to California from Canada.

If any of these make any connection in your family please contact me at _HYPERLINK "mailto:pnbbolte@worldnet.att.net"__pnbbolte@worldnet.att.net_

> >Thanks for getting back to me. First that is one of my big problems...................I have no idea what part of Ireland they are from. So not knowing this I don't even know what towns
or parishes to even look into. Supposedly they immigrated aboard the ship SS Baltic and that a daughter was born aboard ship. They named her Catherine "Baltic" after the name of the ship, But I
have gone through all the passenger lists for this ship but have found nothing. So even this information may be a misnomer. I have check "soundex" listing for the name Kenneally but with no luck
there. Sometime I think that maybe "pouf they appeared" in the US. (chuckle, chuckle)

> >Harry Stevens had a daughter Frances Stevens who married Virgial Kennelly. Harry's twin brother Howard was my great grandfather. My Stevens side of the family came from Maine, New
Hampshire area. So it looks a though I can't help you. Darn I was in hope that I could. See the Kennelly that married a Stevens is from Illinois. I wish I could have been more help. Good luck.

Hello Jer,
Thanks for the reply...I have no iformaton as yet on
the Kennelly side of my family, except that my
greatgrandmother was margaret Kennelly, born in
Ireland about 1837,her parents were Cornelius(others
say Edmund and Cornelius are the same person) and
there is also a qustion as to the spelling of
Kennelly.
Her mothers name was Mary Nestor.Margaret and Maurice
came to the US with ther children and homesteaded in
Platte Center Nebraska in 1877.
Margaret and maurice are buried at St. Patricks
Cemetery in NE. Maurice Sr. does not have a headstone
but Margaret does, however her name is spelled wrong
on it,it reads Langen rather than Langan.
We have begun a rough draft of a family webpage at
http:community.webtv.net/Saydee4/LANGANSfromIRELAND
If any of this sounds familiar to you I would be ver
interested in knowing.
Thanks again for writing.
Cris

Jer,

Thanks for the reply! I am really excited about this possibly resolving a long-term mystery about the Doherty who was buried in my family plot and who obviously is somehow related. It can also
help me piece together the various branches of the Doherty family of North Kerry and West Limerick.

As to your references, I am not quite clear as to if these are printed books that Graham and Tossell authored, or are they surname submissions to ancestry.com?

I would appreciate any clarification you may be able to provide. Thanks again!

Richard

Jer,

Thank you so much for the information. I would appreciate any and all of the data you have on those wild Irish Patt girls. Do you know where I might be able to do research on Bridget's parents,
John (B.1804) and Ellen Fitzgerald (B.1802) Patt? I need to find out if John had any brothers and then go and get data on them. I am trying to connect the Pattwells from Cork, (Justice Michael
Pattwell, being the most famous) to the Pattwells in Tarbert. The Tarbert Pattwell's grandfather, Richard, was my grandfather's brother. However, there is a Michael Pattwell, who lives in Tarbert
and is a cousin of the Justice So any help would be appreciated . By the way I liked your Kennelly page at Newtownsands.

Okay I don't think or can I find where anyone in the family comes from Athea, Co Limerick Irl.

Harry Stevens had a daughter Frances Stevens who married Virgial Kennelly. Harry's twin brother Howard was my great grandfather. My Stevens side of the family came from Maine, New Hampshire area.
So it looks a though I can't help you. Darn I was in hope that I could. See the Kennelly that married a Stevens is from Illinois. I wish I could have been more help. Good luck.

Thanks for the latest note. Actually I had submitted my name to this registry looking for Dohertys in Kerry.

I finally made contact with the individual who submitted the 1999 query to Ancestry.com regarding the Newtown-Sandes Doherty family. We are currently sharing information and there may be some
ties. The name Laurence is not real common in Kerry and I have found numerous Laurence Dohertys in the branches of my Kerry family. His James has a son and apparently a brother names Lawrence. I
am working the family tree. I had located a James baptised about the right time in the Moyvane parish Registers to Thomas Doherty and Bridget Carmody.

Jer, did you ever write that article on the Doherty nuns? I am wondering if you could give me some help. I am trying to locate the "Motherhouse" for the Loreto Sisters to see if they have a
picture or biographical information on the Doherty who became the Provincial. Do you know where the Motherhouse is located? An address?

Thanks!

Richard

Looking for additional information on

Richard Carr b. abt 1823 who married Johanne Welshe born abt 1823

both died abt 1887

...their parents, where they were born, marriage date...and confirmation of their childrens names and birthdates.

I show

Catherine Carr b. 5 Nov 1846 at Ahalahana

Additionally we believe are the following:

Edmund, John, James, Richard Jr., Josephine, Bridget (1864)

Family tradition is that one brother was a priest, one a doctor and both went to mission field abroad...perhaps China, where one or both died due to a plague. We show a sister as mother superior
of a convent. Not known which ones...or if these are the correct siblings.

Any info on the family appreciated

Dear Jer,

Very nice to have seen you and I enjoyed our discussions. Yes, I got Uncle Paddy's photo back.

Mother never mentioned any brothers of her grand father Bryan, or did they have an argument!

On a Heritage Outing in West Clare to-day Paddy Nolan, a Kilkee Vet, now retired in Doonbeg tells me three of his ancestors, Liddane sisters from West Clare settled in North Kerry, having married
three Stacks. He is not aware if the husbands were brothers or not. Paddy, who is 70, could possibly be talking of grand aunts at least. He has not got the Stacks' first names nor the townlands,
so you may not find it too easy to trace the Liddane women, except by mere chance.

Regards,

Tom.

H Jer

Good to hear from you. Thanks for email.

I may not have emailed you but I have certainly spent quite a lot of time in your site. It is excellent!

Have found the odd bit of new info there too which has been great. Although not getting any further back with our northern County Kerry O'Connells We have recently made a connection with
Melbourne links to the family after putting together a lot of BDM data I was able to get on line.

O'Connell from the Christchurch NZ line was in Melbourne recently and made the break through while she was there.

It was a bit like the amazing breakthrough we got by finding you.

Marie a nun went to a pottery course over there and stayed with other nuns and while there met a Presentation Nun home from overseas on holiday.To cut a long story short this nun turned out to be
the gg grand daughter of John O'Connell born we believe Morgan John in 1847 and baptised at Ballybunion. He was a brother of PP James Hennessey O'C and a son of Jmaes O'C and Ann Hennessey of
Lahardane (named in the flagstone details which you gave us).

We would still love to try and get back another generation but have no clues. Need the birth/baptism of an Edmund O'Connell born about 1775. Mary O'C wife of the Liberator had a brother
Edmund/Edward who was in the Navy and was killed as a young man and I often wonder if he had any family? He would have been born in roughly the right area too. (Lixnaw?)

I can no longer afford to pay for research to be done and live away from decent record repositories but stay ever hopeful that something will pop up one day.From your records on site I do see
where there were other O'C's producing children in Ballybunion area generally, at the same time as James and Anna so wonder if this indicates other members of one and the same family?

Would you like me to send you a copy of the early 'tree' as it stands? If so please send me your address again as I find it difficult to read.

Your help was so valuable and most appreciated I can assure you.

I have some queries and wonder if you can help please?

What does the fact that the family had a flagstone in Knockanure Churchyard indicate to you? The family questions whether this indicates burial there. Could it only be a Memorial and they were
buried elsewhere? If they were buried there would it indicate to you that the family were originally closer to that part eg Newtownsandes as I believe they were rather than to Ballybunion. There
is no indication as to where James senior of the family was born but Maurice my ancestor was born Newtownsandes and he is believed to be the brother of James.

As always any snippets are useful to ponder on.

Although the history drves me crazy at times trying to work it all out I keep coming back to it. Can't leave it alone for long!!

Regards

Pat

Jer,

Today I was trying out Hennessy on Ellis Island site- I found a John Hennessy, Tralee travelling to his brother Denis Hennessy in Kansas. Thade Mahony & Mary Hennessy ( my g grandparents)
second son was Denis- I presume this was the name of Mary's father.

Looking for Mahony or Hennessy on A ship List; Gypsey 23rdJune 1852 I found ; at TRALEE

Jerh Kennally 19 Lab.

Alexander Cunningham was born about 1800 at Ballyshannon, Donegal. We don't

know details of his crime but we do know his father filed a petition for

Mitigation of Sentence in 1824, requesting that he was "young and

inexperienced and easily led astray". Needless to say, petition not granted.

I do not have a passenger list for the Hooghley, unfortunately. Wish I did!

I do know it embarked 195 males, and there were 2 deaths on the voyage. The

ship arrived in Sydney on April 22, 1825. It was built at London in 1819,

master was Ptr. J. Reeves Corbyn, the surgeon was Rbt. Tainish. It had

departed January 5, 1825 from Cork, sailed via Rio, and therefore the voyage

was 107 days. This is from The Convict Ships by Charles Bateson.

When I look in the 1828 NSW census I do not find a Kennelly listed for

Hooghley. I do see a John Kennelly, Govt Servant, age 35, ship Mangles,

1822, life sentence, Catholic, stockman with HG Bailey at Moranballman and

also M. Kennally, a Mariner, no ship listed, with a notation that he died in

1829.

This doesn't really mean anything, because of the many spelling errors in the

census. If you want to send me more information, I will check for other

Here is another reference to Moyvane (Ahalahana) in the same message board at Ancestry.com - have you see it?

Richard Carr b. abt 1823 who married Johanne Welshe born abt 1823

both died abt 1887

...their parents, where they were born, marriage date...and confirmation of their childrens names and birthdates.

I show

Catherine Carr b. 5 Nov 1846 at Ahalahana

Additionally we believe are the following:

Edmund, John, James, Richard Jr., Josephine, Bridget (1864)

Family tradition is that one brother was a priest, one a doctor and both went to mission field abroad...perhaps China, where one or both died due to a plague. We show a sister as mother superior
of a convent. Not known which ones...or if these are the correct siblings.

> brothers and sisters of Michael that is what I am trying to find out.

> The last sister of Michael was born in Limerick about 1855 .

I'm very interested in your site as I'm doing a university project based on a chain migration of families from North Kerry to the district surrounding Mount St Patrick, Canada. Over 200 in all.
Trying to pinpoint places of origin. Names include Kennelly, Lane, Mulvihill, Moriarty, Neville, Stack, Enright, Griffin, Hanrahan, McCarthy etc. So far just a few have been identified as being
from Newtownsandes but now I've seen one of the pioneers on your web site, i.e. Martin Kennelly & Catherine Windle. Any suggestions, please? The couple came to MSP with kids (a son was named
Mortimer) plus three sisters of Martin: husbands were John Hanrahan/Pat or Michael Hanrahan/ Green Martin Mulvihill. Would like to name the sisters.

Was also interested to see another local family listed in your extract from The Boston Globe: Mangan/Mulvihill.

I just thought maybe you'd have more info on this particular Kennelly family - I 'm pretty sure they must be kids of Mortimer/Murtagh Kennelly.

About the piece in The Boston Globe: you'll be interested to know that Mary Mangan was found. She was married at the Mountain the following year.

Meanwhile, I have some of these names in my project except Daly. The problem from your point of view is that 1. We don't know the exact Kerry community of origin for all of them . Other Kennellys
etc came at the same time from Glin.

Anyway, tell me what you think of these:

Martin Kennelly, son of Murtagh/Mortimer and Catherine of Newtownsandes, born c1807, came to Canada with wife Catherine Windle/Wingle; son Michael who married Bridget Madigan here; daughter Ellen
who married John Holly here. Three daughters of Mortimer also came: Bridget, wife of Michael Hanrahan; Ellen, wife of John Hanrahan, and Catherine, who married "Green Martin" Mulvihill in Canada.
Several children of Michael Hanrahan also came, and they married in Canada: Honora (Peter Dodge); John (Bridget Moriarty); Tim (Ellen Madigan); Pat (Catherine Sammon.)

There are still descendants of this family around here, some with different surnames. Lots of other Windles also came, from Glin.

Then we have Martin Kennelly, son of Con Kennelly/Bridget Burns, he married Mary McGrath here.

The Limerick ones were Dan Kennelly. born c1799 and his wife Mary Dunford. A number of their children also came to Canada, and other Dunfords.

The only Relihan I have is Bridget, wife of John Stack, but they were from Listowel.

We had a Bridget Maloney from Kerry who was married here in 1854 to John Bennett; I don't know who her parents were. There was a big gang of Maloneys at the Mountain but they were from Ennis in
County Clare. Quite a few other people came here from Newtownsandes: names such as Mulvihill.

Where are you located?

Carol

Hi There, Thanks for sending the sites on the Kennelly Family. Where are you

located and who is your common ancestor? Mine is Daniel Kennelly, B.

12/24/1775, from County Clare and Cork before coming to America as a young

lad. Hope to hear from you, so that we can share. Thanks again.

. I only know about those who came in a large group to Mount St Patrick, and in due course quite a few then migrated to the States when new land was opened up down there.

As far as the American visitors I mentioned, their ancestors were M. Mulvhill and Bridget McCarthy, (probably Michael or Martin) and there we are stuck. Several Mulvihill/McCarthy couples in our
parish came from Newtownsandes and others from Glin but we don't know where this pair fit in.

I have completed my Kerry Chain project and have permission from the university to publish it.

However, I found so many possible connections with our West Limerick settlers that I am now looking at that subject and may publish all my findings in one book.

Hicky

I don't think I'm related to anyone in Lisselton. Iam from Ballybunion, born

and raised there. In the USA 14 yrs. My Dad's family is from Listowel. My

taught Irish Dancing in all, well most of the schools in North Kerry. It

could be possible that their is a relationship here, but I cant say.

Hope this helps you out.

Sincerely,

Joe

I'm interested in buying a copy of the new book that's out detailing the

history of Moyvane and Knockanure.

My mother's family are from Knockanure, the O'Carrolls, schoolmasters of

Knockanure, and she'd be delighted to read about the town, which we've

visited many times.

thanks for any information you can provide,

Margaret

I enjoyed your online newsletter and found it very informative. I have

been researching my family history for a number of years. My

grandfather, Patrick Windle was born in Glenagragra, County Limerick in

1884. According to information that I have his father, Michael Windle

and mother Anna Long were born in Kerry, as was his grandfather, Henry

Windle and Bridget Culhane. I have not had much success with the Kerry

Heritage Center in getting information on the Windle's in Kerry. The

Windle name is not that common in Ireland, for the most part it was only

in Limerick and Kerry. Do you know of anyone in Kerry who does family

research who might be able to help me?

I have information on all of my grandfather's siblings and I believe

most of his father's siblings. It appears that at least four of my

grandfather Patricks, aunts and uncles (sisters and brothers of Michael)

came to the US and died here. I do not know if there were any other

brothers and sisters of Michael that is what I am trying to find out.

The last sister of Michael was born in Limerick about 1855 according to

parish record information that I got from the Limerick Heritage Center.

Thank You

Still hoping that I can receive some information with regard to MULVIHILL. Micheal and Ellen of Newtown Sandes town County Kerry Civil Parish of Murher Poor Law Union ( what does that mean ? )
Listowel. One of their children - Thomas married Johanna Scanlon in Guernsey Channel Isles and came to Australia as assissted passengers on the ' Mary Ann ' settling in Tumut New South Wales
Australia. I have some details on them but would like more family history. Kind regards Anne M

Thanks for your great site. I am trying to find info on my grandmother who died in New York in 1912 when my mother was 3 yrs. Little is known other than she married my grandfather, MICHAEL
GREANEY from Newcastle West, in New York City around 1907 in Resurrection R.C. Church. The only info is:

JOSEPHINE SANDES, born .c 1878-9 in Newtownsandes.

Her father may have been COL. OR CAPT. GEORGE SANDES.

Only other relatives in New York were CATHERINE SANDES d. 1920 and MARY SANDES.

I realise that the SANDES name relates to Protestant landlords, but do you know of any Catholic SANDES? Can you provide me with any source to research the SANDES family about 1878?

I've been to Ireland the last two years and may return within the next two. I've been researching my father's line (he was born in Limerick) EGAN and my mother's line GREANEY of Newcastle West
and Athea.

Thanks again for your informative site and your anticipated reply.

Rosemary Egan Zimmer

Thanks, Jer, for your reply. I haven't been online much this week as I have been glued to the TV & in a state of grief. I was born & raised in New York City and most of my family lives
there. By the grace of God, several of my close relatives were spared, but suffering post traumatic symptoms. My nephew who is in the elite Emergency Services Unit with the NYC Police Department
was in Ireland on vacation when the madness occurred. He came home yesterday to find out many of his co-workers were missing/killed. My niece's husband works opposite the WTC and saw everything,
he is suffering greatly. Forgive me my going on like this, but it is a catharsis. Back to relatives....

My grandfather, Michael J. Greaney, who was born & raised in Newcastle West, was the son of Cornelius Greaney of Athea and Johanna Flannigan of (still researching). Just last week I came
across the article about Con Greaney of Athea and wondered if he is related. I still have Greaney relatives living in Newcastle West and am told by my nephew who visited last year that some
relatives are in Athea. Most of my mother's Greaney relatives remained in Ireland - Dublin and Limerick mostly.

My father, John A. Egan, was born in Limerick City in 1903 in what used to be called Dixon's Lane (now Hyde Road) next to the railroad station. He was one of 13 children, 6 of whom died in
childhood. He left Ireland rather quickly in 1921 during the Black & Tan times. Eventually, his parents & siblings also emigrated. His father, also named John Egan, originally came from
Croagh, Co. Limerick, and his father was Thomas Egan from Ballyneety who married Mary McNamara from Liffane in Askeaton Chapel. My grandmother was Teresa Borough from Dixon's Lane. Her mother's
line was Naughton/Sarsfield from Thomondgate. So you see, my relatives go way back in Limerick.

My parents are both dead, two grandparents died before I was born and the other two died when I was a child. Before my parents died (10 & 20 years ago), I did question them and got a little
information, but they did not tell me much. It is only in going to Ireland and talking to other relatives that I started getting more of a picture of their lives. I have been obsessed in
researching my family, but researching in Ireland isn't easy, especially when all my relatives seem to back hundreds of years.

Hi Jerry,

I am seeking information on D. H. and Ellen Minser Kennelley from Clinton

county, PA . They married 26 Feb 1887. I am especially interested in the

ancestors of Ellen Minser. Please contact me if you have these names.

Thanks.

S L Baker

On a Heritage Outing in West Clare to-day Paddy , a Kilkee man, now retired in Doonbeg tells me three of his ancestors, Liddane sisters from West Clare settled in North Kerry, having married
three Stacks. He is not aware if the husbands were brothers or not. Paddy, who is 70, could possibly be talking of grand aunts at least. He has not got the Stacks' first names nor the townlands,
so you may not find it too easy to trace the Liddane women, except by mere chance.

Regards,

Tom.

In Reply to: Maloney family tree

Yes, I have a lot of information on the Maloney's of County Clare which was prepared by an Aunt in 1920. I am hoping to connect my STEPHEN MALONEY born 1828, came to America 1844. Have been
unable to connect him to all the information she had gathered for several generations back.

If you will contact me off line at Havensheaven@AOL.com, we will see if my information would be of any help to you. Marie

I'll have to take a look at my great-grandmother's picture to see if it can be copied clearly. I know she was an old woman when it was taken outside the cottage she lived in at Dromin Beesom
where my cousin Cissie still lives and where my mother lived as a child for a few years when her mother died. I wrote this poem about my visit to that cottage taking a few liberties:

Mom's Irish Home

I've been to the cottage with a roof of thatch

And a trellis on which roses grow wild

On an old country road by a blackberry patch

Where my mother lived as a child.

'Twas her grandmother's house in Newcastle West

Rather modest with a greatroom and loft

But the riches I saw in the memory chest

Were of reveries silken and soft.

I divined I had lived there ages ago

My veins filled like a rill in a flood

And I swore I heard someone murmuring low,

"Sail on back on the tide of your blood."

Hello!

I just happened to come across the family group sheet that my sister

gave me. This is what we have on the Griffins thus far:

Patrick Griffin father b. ? in Limerick d. 20 Jan 1836 buried St.

Francis Xavier cemetery, Friendsville, Pa

Ellen Griffin, b. May 1766 Limerick d. 11 Oct 1831 " "

spouse: Edward White

Mary Anne b.circa 1797 Limerick

Patrick Griffin, Jr. b. circa 1798 Limerick

Infant son

Unnamed son

John

Peter

William

Daniel (physician and author of Gerald's autobiography) next oldest to

immigrated to the US with her parents, but returned to Ireland after the

death of her parents. She entered the convent on 8 July 1838 and

was known as Sister Mary Baptist Griffin

Lucy b. 1806

Since most sources agree that there were at least 15 children. There

are still 2 more. This would make the 2 infants part of the 15. My

guess is that they were girls, since no son is mentioned after Gerald.

The Griffins arrived in Philadelphia on 24 May 1820 on the Brig "Free

Ocean". By chance I was married 160 years later to the day.

Will let you know if I figure anything else out. Let me know if this

meshes anywhere with your notes.

Hello from California!

Wow! The Griffin ancestors must be pulling some strings from above! My sister and I have been looking into this line since we started going through my father's papers, shortly after he passed
away. They actually belonged to my Great Aunt Hortense J. White. He was busy working in Honolulu at the time and had to rush over to Los Angeles to clear out her apartment when she could no
longer live on her own. At first we were disappointed because he only saved papers. Now that we have found out what they are, we are very grateful, that he had the presence of mind to do so.

Recently, we have been able to hook up with 3 other Griffin researches. One is here in California, one on the east coast in the Carolinas and the other in Notingham, England. We are trying to get
something together where we share all information and perhaps accomplish more.

As for my situation, I have some of our papers and my sister has the others. I live in Northern California and she lives in the southern part of the state. We have an elderly mother that we both
take care of, that lives up here, so she comes up about once a month. We also send things back and forth via email, of course. She is also on her way to visit both her daughter in Spain and then
go to Ohio to help her son, daughter-in-law and new grandchild move into a house. She is able to do this with little expense, because her husband is a captain with a major airline. She has the
info on the White aunts that entered ordered. I believe that nearly all of the girls that immigrated to American in the 1820's became nuns. One was fairly famous at the time for writing the first
textbooks used in the US parochial schools. I have a copy of one of them about Mythology, published in 1876. It was written by C. A. White. I think she was a Catherine.

I don't remember if I told you the exact connection that I have with the Griffins, so excuse me if I repeat. My great x 3 grandmother was Brigid (Bridget) Griffin White, Gerald's sister. She
immigrated with her husband to Friendsville, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, about 3 years after her father and mother did, about 1823. (There is a website, by the way, for the little church
the family founded there, let me know if you'd like the site).

Brigid's son, my grx2 grandfather was William Francis White. He married Frances (Fanny) Russell, also born in Ireland. She was an orphaned as a baby and adopted by her much older cousin, Stephen
Russell Mallory. He was a US Senator from Florida and became Confederate Secretary of the Navy (Ironclads--CSS Virginia (Merrimack) vs the Monitor) during the Civil War. He raised Fanny in Key
West, FL and Wm evidently discovered her on a business trip to the area. He married her in 1849 in Savannah, Georgia, and then headed for New York harbor (after gathering supplies) and headed off
to be a merchant in the California Gold Rush. They settled in San Francisco for about 3 years and made enough money to buy a fairly large piece of property in Watsonville, Santa Cruz County and
founded the church there, as well as the first frame house in the county (shipped as a "kit house" from Boston, said to be of Maine timber). The house still stands, in the middle of a huge
strawberry field. It was obviously built by New Englanders who knew how to build both houses and ships.

Fanny and William's son was Stephen Mallory White, my great grandfather. He was the first native born Californian to serve in the US Senate. His major accomplishment, career-wise was fighting the
Railroad tycoon, Colis Huntington and placing Los Angeles Harbor where it is today. He has a statue there and fairly recently, one of the new state-of-the-art pilot boats was named after him and
Christened by my son, a great thrill for him. SM White married Hortense Sacriste (1/2 French, the other half O"Neill or O'Neal) and their son was my grandfather, William Stephen White. My dad was
Stephen William Nolting White. My son is John Stephen, so you can see we've kept the name of the man who graciously took in my gg grandmother years ago.

It is said that the money from the sale of Gerald's Collegians was sent to PA to help start the family on their way here, so you can see why we hold a great debt to his generosity.

The man that I mentioned before in Nottingham thinks his connection is Daniel, Gerald's brother who wrote the bio of him. He has an inscribed book, passed down through the generations stating so.
The one in California is looking for an elusive "Honora" Griffin. In his search, he has found out more about MY family than his so far, even a connection in Ireland, where someone there was
wondering what happened to our branch of the family and found the Catholic Encyclopedia article, but not us. My dad was trying to do the reverse. He brought us to Ireland in 1968, but we were
only able to stay a short while and the only connection we were able to find was Gerald Griffin St. in Limerick.

As for me, I ended up more than 1/2 Irish, the rest being English (my mom's family left England with nearly the first colonists about 1640 for Jamestown, VA, the first permanent English
settlement here. Oddly enough, they left for Religious and Political reasons as well, as they were Quakers. I also have a small amount of French and German as well. The interesting mix is my son,
who is half Italian .

No, I don't know anything about the Manley's of California. How are they related and what do you know about them so far? Supposedly, more Griffins made it to California than I released. Some are
supposedly buried in the closest Mission Cemetery at San Juan Bautista. I just found this out and have not had the time to drive down there and check it out. It's only about a half an hour or so
from here, so I plan to pop down there as soon as I have the chance to see what I can find. We did have mention of it in the family letters, but didn't know that they stayed in California and
were buried so close. I have been to the mission more than a few time and wasn't aware of it. I always take visitors there because it is right on the San Andreas earthquake fault and is quite
impressive, especially for those not used to earthquakes.

Let me know what, if anything you do know about the Manleys and I will attempt to see if I can add anything to it.

I don't know if the talent is inherited or not, but my son seems to be a natural at poetry. He's even been able to write poems for his French class. They just pop out without much effort at all.
I was never good at it, so it has me baffled. My grandfather's brother, Gerald Griffin White, also seemed to have quite a talent. We have found stacks of his that were evidently read on major San
Francisco and Los Angeles radio stations in the 1930's.

Must go. I have to pack early for the trip so that my nephew can spend the week with us when he comes. He's the same age as my son and the cousins only get to see each other once a year. My son
is an only child, so they are like brothers.

Nice hearing from you. I really enjoyed your website, by the way. We are trying to get one up at this end. My son knows how to design them but we are in the process of upgrading our system. My
husband is a systems operator for the county. We live in Silicon Valley, by the way, which explains why we even have a system at all. I'm aiming for an iBook, so that I can go off into my corner
and not be disturbed while I'm doing my genealogy. The word I dread from the office is "OOPS!" The two are constantly upgrading everything and occasionally there's a BIG mistake. Of course they
always blame it on the machine.

Thanks for getting in touch!

Hello,

I'm taking a "shot in the dark" here, but would you know who I might

contact to try to do some genealogy research on the Mulvihill's born in

Lawlor, O'Connor) were all living in the same vicintity and attending each

others funerals as the years went by.

I would love to be put in contact with the Costello family that you know

from Tullabeg--especially since the baptismal records at St. Johns, say that

my Costello were definitely from there. Please can you help me reach them

and are they willing to speak with me? are they interested in the genealogy

of our family?

You mentioned the Flavin family in Moyvane--can you pass my address to them

also? You are a great help. Thank you. Please let me know that you get

this email I have copied your response to me , below to help remind you.

Again thanks Jer, hope to hear from you soon

Peggy

Kate Flavin was a great faction fighter supporter and may have been a bit of a

Poetess c1830.

Busy at this time keep reminding me and I will get back to you.

Patt Family

Got your address from my cousin Susan Patt Spencer. I thought I'd contact you to see if you can shed any more information on the PATT clan from Kerry. The following is what I have so far:( I
pasted this info from other messages)

I have located John PATT (B.1804 D.1874) who married Ellen FITZGERALD

(B.1802 D. 1872) in Kerry, Ireland, possibly in Letter or Littor or

Ballylongford.

>

> I also found that their son, Thomas, (B Dec. 22, 1841, D. ??), married

on Jan.22, 1871. John and Ellen also had a daughter Bridget born July 25, 1835, who

cared for Tom's youngest daughter Honoria when Tom's wife, Mary died in

1888.

>

Thomas and Mary had NINE CHILDREN, five sons and four daughters:

John-B. Mar. 2, 1873,D. Jun 6, 1935-accident in Canada;

Michael (My GF)-B. Sep. 17, 1874;D.Apr. 9, 1964,

Thomas-B. Mar. 31, 1876, D.??;

Richard-B. Jan. 14, 1878, D-??

Martin-B. Nov. 11, 1880, D. Aug 17, 1947.

The daughters were Catherine-B.8/25/1881, D.??;

Ellen-B.5/26/1883, D.??;

Mary- B.7/29/1885, D. ??;

Honoria-B. 4/2/1888, D.1973. Honoria married a Stephen Denihan in Kerry. I have found their descendants in the States.

John, Michael and Martin emigrated to the USA through Canada in approximately 1895. During their trip across "The Pond", the brothers decided to alter their surname from PATT to PATWELL for John
and Martin and to PATTWELL for Michael. The reason: "Irish need not apply"

Brief History of the Diocese of Limerick, which was printed in the service booklet for the installation of Bishop Donal Murray in March 1996.

Though the shadowy figure of the seventh century St. Munchin is its patron, the Diocese of Limerick actually dates from the twelfth century when its boundaries were laid down at the Synod of Ráth
Bressail. It is unlikely that any diocesan structure had existed prior to that time and the local bishops would have been members of the monastic communities in the area. While they would have
had some prestige deriving from their office, it was the abbots who held power and were the administrators of the church system. The Vikings were primarily responsible for the establishment of a
diocesan system in Ireland and the city of Limerick played a leading role in that development through the work of its first bishop, Gilbert. He was initially consecrated as a bishop for the city
and subsequently took charge of the diocese when it was formed in the year 1111.

One of the most remarkable figures of our diocese is that its boundaries have not changed significantly since that time and were in turn based on an older territorial division, a Munster
sub-kingdom ruled by the Ui Fidgente kings. On his death in 1145 Gilbert was succeeded by Bishop Patrick, who probably took his name at his consecration and may have been of Viking ancestry, as
indeed Gilbert probably was. The next bishop, of whom we have record, is Brictius. He took part in the Synod of Cashel in 1172 and also represented Limerick at the third Lateran council in 1179.
It is of interest that he travelled to Rome with St. Laurence O'Toole, the first canonised Irish saint.

The _HYPERLINK "bla-boo.htm"__Black Book of Limerick_, a manuscript transcription of various medieval documents relating to the diocese, provides valuable information for that period. In 1201 and
enquiry was held into the ecclesiastical property of the diocese. The jury who conducted this survey was made up equally of Irish, Norman and Viking members indicating the cosmopolitan nature of
the diocese at that time. This invaluable list of early thirteenth century churches is printed and discussed in _HYPERLINK "beg-his.htm"__Begley's history of the diocese_. In a taxation return
for 1302 we learn for the first time that the diocese had been divided into deaneries and a proxy tax of 1418 gives another list of churches which affords a valuable comparison with the situation
in 1201. It is to _HYPERLINK "ode-cor.htm"__Cornelius O'Dea_, bishop from 1400 to 1426, that we are indebted fort he two great treasures of the diocese, the _HYPERLINK "ode-mit.htm"__O'Dea Mitre_
and _HYPERLINK "ode-cro.htm"__Crozier_. He was also responsible for the compilation of the Black Book, which was returned to its rightful home in the diocese during the recent episcopate of the
late _HYPERLINK "new-jer.htm"__Bishop Newman_. At the reformation Bishop John Quin, a Dominican priest from Kilmallock friary, accepted the limited changes of King Henry VIII, as his successor
Bishop William Casey did the Lutheran system of Edward VI. Following the restoration of papal links under Queen Mary, Casey was dismissed and Hugh Lacy, a member of the prominent County limerick
Anglo Norman family was appointed. He remained in office until 1571 when he was removed by Queen Elizabeth and William Casey was restored as the new Anglican Bishop. It is from this date that the
final cleavage occurred and henceforth there were to be separate bishops for the Catholic and Anglican dioceses. Bishop Lacy died in 1580 and two years later the Holy See appointed Cornelius
O'Boyle as bishop. He was then in Spain, where he appears to have remained until his death in 1597.

Limerick was without a bishop for a further twenty years until _HYPERLINK "art-cha.htm"__Richard Arthur_, who had been vicar general, was appointed. On his death in 1646 he was buried in Sr.
Mary's Cathedral which had come into catholic hands during the Confederate wars of the 1640's. His successor, Dr. Edmund O'Dwyer, undertook a re-organisation of the diocese and his report of Rome
in 1649 gives a valuable insight into the situation at that time. He survived the siege of the city by Ireton in 1650 and after the surrender escaped to Brussels where he died in 1654. The
difficult period of the Cromwellian regime was succeeded by a more tolerant approach after the restoration of Charles II. In 1677 a new bishop, Dr. James Dowley was appointed. Two years later he
sent an optimistic report to Rome on the state of the diocese. Education was flourishing with schools in every parish and a weekly sermon on Sundays. He established two confraternity in the city
and visited each parish in the diocese and ordained priests regularly. Even during the brief persecution occasioned by the Popish plot scare he was not hindered in his episcopate and lived until
1658 which saw the catholic monarch James II ascend the throne. Dr. John O'Moloney was transferred from the see of Killaloe to Limerick in 1689 but he left for the continent before the 1690 siege
and the administration of the diocese was, during the tumultuous period of the sieges and the treaty of 1691, in the hands of his cousin, Dr. Matthew Moloney and Dr. James Stritch, vicars
general. The diocese was again without a bishop during the early years of the eighteenth century when much anti-Catholic legislation was passed by the Irish parliament. A new bishop, Dr.
Cornelius O'Keeffe, was eventually appointed in 1720 and he managed to administer the diocese successfully despite the legal restrictions. In the 1780's, during the episcopate of Dr. Conway, a
report to Rome on the state of the diocese shows that the church did not suffer as severely under the penal legislation as is often supposed. The diocese was divided into four decantes each
presided over by a vicar forane who held a conference of his priests once a month. The forty parishes of the diocese each had a chapel with at least basic facilities and there was no shortage of
priests. The mass rocks of popular folklore were clearly not the normal location for the Mass.

The chapels in the five city parishes were larger and more ornate. There were no convents of nuns and the report notes with concern the refusal of some clerical students to return to the diocese
after their ordination at continental colleges. In 1825 Dr. John Ryan from Tipperary, was appointed coadjutor bishop with the right of succession to the elderly and infirm Bishop Charles Tuohy.
The grant of Catholic emancipation in 1829 revitalised the church in the diocese and during the long episcopate of Bishop Ryan and those of his successors, bishops Butler and O'Dwyer, there were
major programmes of church building, parish reorganisation, liturgical innovation and spiritual renewal. Their record of achievement and commitment to the diocese has been continued and expanded
by their twentieth century successors-in our own time, by bishops Murphy and Newman-in the see established by Gilbert more than eight centuries ago. Thanks to Fr. John Leonard for this above.

14th April 1842

McLaughlin, Father Peter
Cleveland, Ohio

to Bishop John Baptist Purcell
of Cincinnati, Ohio

Thanks Purcell for his letter of the 7th, and promises to do what ever Purcell wishes. Expects to have about 50 for confirmation including those from Vermillion, Carlisle, Painsville, Cuyahoga
Falls. However he must know the exact day of Purcell's visit because those living away from Cleveland lack means of conveyance. Suggests that Purcell and Father (Martin) Henni, the Vicar General
stay a week at his house on Water Street. Wants Purcell to decide whether it is easier to go to Detroit or to Father DeGoesbriand's for the oils etc. Speaks of the fervor of the congregation at
Avon, and of the laxity of the men at Vermillion Furnace. He will be in Liverpool on the 25th. The Germans in Cleveland are happy because they made their Easter duty. Speaks of the affair with
Mrs. Golden. The bill as presented is for $1000. His lawyers Boten and Kelly have conferred with him and he has agreed to pay her $416. She has presented to them bills for other sundries about
which McLaughlin asks Purcell what to do.
P.S. His congregation is all day laborers, even the boys and girls. They could pay their debts until they received this Golden one. Mr. Golden had agreed not to trouble them.

Thanks for the info. You mentioned that you had more on Local

History. Is that on your site? If so, I didn't get the

connection, even though I've visited every page.

Speaking of visiting - my sister and I went to Knockanure 4

years ago. We hired P.J. Broderick in Listowel to take us

to the Slate House, and to the Valley of Knockanure, as well

as a churchyard full of Kennellys. We didn't make it to

what had been Dromlought, to our regret. I had a copy of

my grandfather's birth certificate, but hadn't at that time

found out where Dromlought had been (on the Ballybunion Road,

we were told) or we would have sought out the cemetery.

Others of my ggmother's family included:

Patrick Barry nephew

Tullamore, Ballybunion

County Kerry, Eire

Michael Barry nephew

Urlee, Liselton

Subject: John Kennelly (abt 1846)

Posted by: Jo Kennelly

Message: I am looking for information on my paternal greatfather - John Kennelly who was born in Co. Kerry abt 1846 or 1847. (Possibly born in Newtonsandes -now known as Moyvanne)

He arrived in New Zealand abt 1874-76 and was married at Greymouth, New Zealand, in 1880 to a Phoebe Johanna Smith, who arrived from Australia in 1877.

Virtually nothing is known of John life before he settled in New Zealand - his death certificate describes his father as being John Folan Kennelly, a hospital attendant and his mother as Bridget
Kennelly (maiden name unknown). Enquires made of the Parish Priest at Moyvane disclosed that a John Kennelly married a Bridget Kirby in Moyvane (yr unknown) and they had seven children between
1842 and 1857. None was called John. This was the only record held at the time between a John Kennelly and a Bridget or Brigid at the relevant time. (We don't think this is our John)

There is some question mark over whether the details on John's death certifcate were correct. He may have been the son of Thomas and Hannah Kennelly (nee Forin) - Co. unknown.

John's death certificate indicates that he resided in New Zealand for 40 years. John would have been about 27 yrs at the time of his arrival. It is possible that he came to NZ via Australia,
Canada or the USA.

John's oldest son was a Michael Thomas, but registered as Thomas, and his second son was John.

Look forward to hearing from anyone who might be able to help me with information on John or his parents - either John Folan Kennelly and Bridget Kennelly or Thomas and Hannah Kennelly (nee
Forin)... Or, from anyone who might have useful tips on where to look next.

My grandfather, William Paul Herbert was born in NYC in 1892.

He had a brother Daniel, who worked for the fire dept. in either Brooklyn or the Bronx.

Their parents were Martin Herbert and Elizabeth Kennelly, of NYC. Probably born about 1870.

Both parents were out of the picture for some reason, when the boys were both young, and they were raised by aunts on their mother's side.

Daniel had no children, as far as I know.

William P. had a son, William Stephen (my dad) and a daughter Alice Elizabeth.

As you can see, this line dead ends for me. If you have any information, I would be very grateful. Thank you.

Came across your almost year old message. C2000. My grandmother Anna (possibly Hannah) Marie Dalton came to USA 1890's from Abbeyfeale, along with her sisters Mary, Kate and Ellen. Appear to have
landed in Philadelphia. Anna ended up in upstate New York after a few years. They left a brother John in Ireland, we think.Unable to find any info in the Abbeyfeale area about this family. Anna
was born about 1874 to Michael Dalton and Katherine Stack. Does any of this information fit with anything that you have?

Lary (Lowery) b 1837 and James Dougherty b 1843 left Newtowne Sandes (Moyvane) with their parents after 1843 and ended up in Picqua,Ohio where the parents died. They were raised by an aunt in
Union City, Ohio and served in the Civil War. There is a family rumor that they left for political reasons following an uncle who left earlier. The dougherty name is a North one and uncommon in
Kerry.

I am Terry, descended from Bryan McMahon b. 1831 or 1837 who came to New Zealand circa 1855, and married Margaret Devane in Australia on Dec 17, 1866. Bryan had brothers Patrick, John and Owen,
and daughter Ellena b. Jan 13, 1839 and another daughter. John m. Ellen Tangnay on May 22, 1864. All are believed to have left Co. Kerry (Molahiffe, Mile Height or Ballyseedy areas), some to the
USA and some to Australia for the gold rushes. Bryan's father was Thade (Timothy) who m. Margaret Hannafin. He had brothers Jermiah (Darby) who d. April 16, 1857, and who m. Mary Murphy who d.
Jan 31, 1878; Terence who m. Johanna Murphy Jul 14, 1839; Owen who m. Catherine O'Sullivan; Denis; Brian who m. Catherine Enright; Charles who m. Ellen O'Sullivan and Daniel. Their father was
Terence who m. Margaret Moriarty and he d. Dec 10, 1840. His brothers were John who m. ? Flynn; Owen who m. Nora Stack in 1810; and Timothy who was a half-brother. Their father was Darby (we
believe it could have been Dairmaird or Jeremiah) who d. 1778 and who m. firstly M. O'Sullivan the mother of Timothy; darby m. secondly Eleanor O'Mahony who was mother to the other three. Darby
had 9 sisters whose details are not known. Darby's father was John McMahon who m. Catherine Moriarty. John's brothers were Brian, Jeremiah, Timothy and Terence. John would have been b. circa
1710. His father was Terence who was b. circa 1680. We believe he was one of four brothers who came to Co. Kerry from Co. Clare, and he settled in Molahiffe. Two of the others are believed to
have gone, one to Knockanure (north of Listowel in Co. Kerry) and one to Kilmoiley. A fourth went to Co. Limerick, where one line included the French connection through Jean-Baptiste de MacMahon
(John MacMahon) b. 1715. Terence stayed in the Molahiffe area, and his grandson Darby (and probably Terence and his son also) are buried in the ruins of the old Molahiffe abbey near the church at
Fieries.

Someone in the area may have better knowledge of the graves and their inscriptions. We would dearly like to hear from anyone with this knowledge. We would also like to hear from anyone with any
interest in any of the people mentioned above. Unfortunately the older records in the Molahiffe parish were destroyed by fire, but the family were Catholics, and leased land for potato farming.
Terence's G/G/Grandson Jeremiah (Darby) leased land at Bushmount off Daniel C. Coltsman, and Jeremiah himself sublet land to Timothy Cahill. This was in 1853.
